Sifu Och is one of the most honest, wise, fair and loving of individuals I know. His training, combined with his ethics are a rarity. His techniques are near perfect yet, he continues his own personal growth. I am honored to be part of this family. I have NO doubt that my growth in Wing Chun (and as a person) has been and will continue to be exponential under his teachings.

There’s not enough good things to say about this escape room location! They are locally, family run and they create all of their rooms from scratch and their own design, hand building them. Now that’s impressive. And they are so creative and fun, you just want to keep coming back for more! One of my best friends even worked there for a summer as a game master and she absolutely loved it and always mentioned how lovely the owners were and everything so yeah. Not only do you get the pure enjoyment and thrill of playing an escape room here, but you’re supporting a business run by hard-working, decent people. Super great!!

We were given tickets to the "suite" level, which is a table with chairs basically at courtside. This level comes with a very nice meal before (and during) the game. The meal was professional quality with some very good pork and chicken dishes, a couple of kinds of pasta, and hot dogs and chips for the kids. Popcorn, veggie trays, and soft drinks were also included. After halftime, they brought out dessert== a couple kinds of cake plus warm churros that were to die for. So, five stars for the food. The game was fun too. Our team won, so that helped. We were hitting all the 3's, so it was a high scoring game, which is always fun to watch. During the breaks there were the little contests for kids that everyone seems to enjoy. After halftime some guest cheerleaders came to our side of the floor and that was a bit unpleasant-- they were painfully loud and made conversation difficult. So I could have done without them, but otherwise, it was a very fun night.
